I believe therapy is a collaborative and compassionate process that creates space for healing, self-discovery, and deeper connection with yourself and others. My approach is rooted in the belief that healing happens within safe, supportive relationships; both the relationship we build together in therapy and the relationship you develop with yourself. I strive to create an environment where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. I believe therapy is not about “fixing” people, but about helping individuals reconnect with their inner strengths, process difficult experiences, and move toward a more grounded and fulfilling life. My clinical work is heavily informed by trauma-focused care, attachment theory, and relational healing. I draw from modalities including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt therapy, Somatic therapy, and Person-Centered therapy to provide an integrative and individualized approach. I am especially passionate about helping clients move beyond intellectual understanding and into embodied healing, recognizing that our experiences and emotions are held not only in the mind, but also within the body. I often work with clients navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, self-worth struggles, substance use, and co-occurring mental health concerns. My goal is always to meet clients where they are and walk alongside them as they navigate the challenging, vulnerable, and transformative process of healing.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The first session is an opportunity for us to begin building a safe, supportive, and authentic therapeutic relationship. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, intimidating, or even overwhelming, so my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are. During our first session, we will spend time getting to know each other, exploring what brings you to therapy, discussing your current challenges, and identifying what you hope to gain from the therapeutic process.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

What makes my approach unique is the way I intentionally center the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of healing while also integrating depth-oriented trauma work. I do not take a distant or overly clinical stance; instead, I am fully present in the emotional experience with my clients, offering attunement, transparency, and real connection while also incorporating structured, evidence-based interventions. I also emphasize somatic awareness in a way that helps clients reconnect with their bodies as a source of information, regulation, and healing, not just their thoughts.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to support adolescents and adults navigating co-occurring mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and major life transitions. Many of the individuals I work with feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, stuck in repetitive or unhelpful patterns, or uncertain about how to move forward in their lives. They may struggle with managing stress, regulating intense emotions, maintaining healthy and fulfilling relationships, setting and sustaining boundaries, or developing a stronger sense of identity and self-worth.

My treatment methods

EMDR

My goal with EMDR is not just symptom reduction, but deeper integration, helping clients shift long-held beliefs about themselves, reduce emotional reactivity, and reconnect with a greater sense of safety, self-trust, and internal stability. I view EMDR as a powerful tool for transformation when used within a compassionate, relational, and carefully paced therapeutic framework.

Relational

In practice, my relational approach means I am actively present and engaged in the therapeutic process rather than distant or overly clinical. I pay close attention to the emotional dynamics that emerge between myself and the client, as well as how these patterns may mirror relationships outside of therapy. I value transparency, authenticity, and emotional attunement, and I aim to respond to clients in a way that feels grounded, compassionate, and human.
